For the first time in United States History, the Commonwealth of Virginia has a female Governor. Abigail Spanberger took the oath of office at the Virginia State Capitol, a building steeped in history. As her husband and three daughters looked on, along with dozens of well-wishers, the Democrat vowed to work for unity. She said, “It is our duty to demonstrate for the generations to come that when faced with hardships, challenges, divisions, and even bitterness, we too forged a path forward and pursued progress.” Abigail Spanberger is now Virginia's 75th Governor.
